Childhood and long-term dietary calcium intake and adult cardiovascular risk in a population with high calcium intake
<p>Background & aims</p><p>The influence of dietary calcium intake in childhood on adult cardiovascular health is unknown, particularly in those with long-term high intake. To examine both linear and non-linear associations ...
Mitochondrial genome-wide analysis of nuclear DNA methylation quantitative trait loci
<p>Mitochondria have a complex communication network with the surrounding cell and can alter nuclear DNA methylation (DNAm). Variation in the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) has also been linked to differential DNAm. Genome-wide ...
Meta-analysis uncovers genome-wide significant variants for rapid kidney function decline
<p>Rapid decline of glomerular filtration rate estimated from creatinine (eGFRcrea) is associated with severe clinical endpoints. In contrast to cross-sectionally assessed eGFRcrea, the genetic basis for rapid eGFRcrea ...
BMI is positively associated with accelerated epigenetic aging in twin pairs discordant for body mass index
<p>Background <br>Obesity is a heritable complex phenotype that can increase the risk of age-related outcomes. Biological age can be estimated from DNA methylation (DNAm) using various "epigenetic clocks." Previous work ...
Long-term tracking and population characteristics of lipoprotein (a) in the Cardiovascular Risk in Young Finns Study
<p>Background and aims</p><p>Lipoprotein (a) (Lp(a)) is a causal risk factor for cardiovascular diseases and its levels are under strict genetic control. Therefore, it is hypothesized that the concentration of Lp(a) remains ...
Uncovering the shared lipidomic markers of subclinical osteoporosis-atherosclerosis comorbidity: The Young Finns Study
<p>Background: Osteoporosis and atherosclerosis are complex multifactorial diseases sharing common risk factors and pathophysiological mechanisms suggesting that these are comorbidities. Omics studies identifying joint ...
Assessment of plasma ceramides as predictor for subclinical atherosclerosis
<p>Background and aims</p><p>Ceramides have been identified as novel biomarkers for cardiovascular disease (CVD) related events and mortality but their role in etiology of subclinical atherosclerosis is unknown. We aimed ...
Carotid artery longitudinal wall motion alterations associated with metabolic syndrome and insulin resistance
Background and aims: Our objective was to study relationships between the new biomarker of vascular health, carotid artery longitudinal wall motion (CALM) and metabolic syndrome (MetS).<div><br></div><div>Methods: Carotid ...
Genetic and observational evidence: No independent role for cholesterol efflux over static high-density lipoprotein concentration measures in coronary heart disease risk assessment
<p>Background <br></p><p>Observational findings for high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-mediated cholesterol efflux capacity (HDL-CEC) and coronary heart disease (CHD) appear inconsistent, and knowledge of the genetic architecture ...
Dietary Pattern Trajectories from Youth to Adulthood and Adult Risk of Impaired Fasting Glucose: A 31-year Cohort Study
<p><b>Context</b></p><p>The influence of dietary pattern trajectories from youth to adulthood on adult glucose metabolism is unknown.<br></p><p><b>Objective</b></p><p>To identify dietary pattern trajectories from youth to ...
